The MSCI India Index consists of 60 Indian companies, 10 more than the Nifty with Reliance Industries having the largest weightage of 13% followed by Infosys with a weightage of over 10%. The MSCI India Index has stocks other than Nifty which include AV Birla Nuvo, Glenmark Pharma, United Phos, United spirits.This is yet another interesting product , which would attract investors looking for Diversified Equity Fund.
